I have a quick question for you all.

Several years ago I bought new boots to cover the CV and slip joints on my steering shaft. I am not replacing the steering box and want to install the boots. Unfortunately, I see no way to install the upper boot that covers the CV joint. The upper clamp is so close to the 6 bolts on the CV joint that it appears that there is not enough room for the boot to fit let alone clamp it in place.

Does anyone have any pictures of their steering shaft with the boots installed? Maybe I am picturing the assembly all wrong.

Thanks,

Bob
